Further, if the total power allocated to WAN operation and D2D operation at the given moment exceeds PCmax, D2D operation may be dropped. Otherwise, D2D operation may be performed with the allocated D2D transmission power.
  • D2D transmission power may also be protected by P_xeNB. More specifically, at least the remaining power on xCG based on P_xeNB may be allocated to D2D operation even if yCG may request higher power than P_yeNB. For example, it is assumed that if 50% power is allocated to MCG and MCG transmission requires 30% power. Further, it is assumed that SCG requires 60% power. In this case, when D2D operation requires 30%, D2D transmission power may be allocated with at least 20% power. In other words, in terms of the remaining power, the priority may be in WAN operation whereas D2D operation may be protected by the guaranteed power allocated to each CG.
  • PCM 2 When PCM 2 is configured, MCG and SCG may not be synchronized within 33us. Assuming D2D operation is enabled in xCG and xCG is greater than 0 (i.e. guaranteed power is allocated to xCG), D2D transmission power may be limited by (P_xeNB - power allocated to WAN operation in xCG ⁇ . That is, D2D transmission power may be limited by the remaining power in xCG assuming P_xeNB is the maximum power in xCG, thus the remaining power cannot be allocated to D2D operation.
  • D2D transmission power may be limited by (PCmax - P_yeNB - power allocated to WAN operation in xCG ⁇ . That is, D2D transmission power may be limited by the maximum power and reserved power for the other CG and power allocated in the same CG, thus the remaining power may be allocated to D2D operation. In terms of allocating the remaining power, if D2D operation occurs earlier than WAN operation, the remaining power may be allocated to D2D operation. Or, in terms of allocating the remaining power, if there is no WAN operation in both overlapped subframes requiring the remaining power (i.e. power is sufficiently allocated to WAN operation in both overlapped subframes), then the remaining power (i.e. D2D transmission has the lowest priority than any other WAN operation) may be allocated to D2D operation.

  • a UE may assign higher priority on D2D operation only in subframes where D2D operation is prioritized.
  • the configuration may be given based on subframe boundary of PCell or subframe boundary of reference cell (serving cell). If a D2D operation is overlapped with two subframes where only one subframe is configured to prioritize D2D operation, either a UE may scale the power in the middle of transmission, or a UE may take the minimum power from two subframes. In other words, higher priority for D2D operation may be applicable only to portions aligned with subframe(s) configured to prioritize D2D operation. Alternatively, it may also take the higher power between two overlapped portions. In this case, D2D operation may be higher priorized than WAN operation in at least one overlapped subframe configured to prioritize D2D operation.
  • a UE may be configured with a priority between carriers.
  • D2D operation or D2D carrier may have higher priority than SCG or SCell. This priority may be either prefixed or configured by higher layer. In that case, in terms of power allocation, D2D operation may have higher priority than a certain set of SCell(s).
  • PCmax For allocating power to WAN operation, PCmax1 may be used. Whereas for allocating power to D2D operation, PCmax2 may be used.
  • the guaranteed power may be split to three categories, i.e. MCG, SCG and D2D operation.

  • D2D operation may be disabled.
